well there was stuff clearly listed as lamb. i haven’t had lamb in probably 45 years or so? My grandmother was the only one who would cook it. my mother didn’t like it and therefore never made it. i remember liking it ok, but have no recollection of how it tastes.
I guess it is a cultural thing - “might” be some other kind of meat (possibly something gross) but, like you, I’m not familiar with the taste of lamb either. I just googled the name and it listed that it is usually made with lamb
